Read the passage below and choose the best answer for each question.

If you were to stop people in the street and ask them to name a ship that had been sunk, it is likely that nearly all of them would say the Titanic. For the sinking of the Titanic was, if not the most tragic, certainly the most famous sea disaster in the history of ocean travel.

The Titanic was built as a luxury liner, intended to be the fastest in the world, and a great deal of publicity had surrounded it. The last point probably explains why so many important people from all walks of life were on the boat when it went down.

The Titanic was on its maiden voyage to America in 1912 when it struck an iceberg and sank. Of its 2,300 passengers, more than two-thirds were drowned. Because the Titanic was thought to be virtually unsinkable, no one was prepared for the tragedy. There was total panic as very few of the passengers had bothered to learn the necessary drill in the event of trouble. There was severe shortage of lifeboats and those that were launched were still half-empty. The one point of calm was to be found in the ballroom where the band carried on playing right to the very end.

What makes the sinking of the Titanic even more tragic is the fact that warnings of icebergs had been sent, yet the liner was still continuing at full speed. In addition, one ship was only ten miles away but did not receive the distress signal.

One good thing did, however, result from the disaster. The whole question of safety at sea was looked into, resulting in much better safety measures, including stricter lifeboat regulations and the establishment of an iceberg patrol.

1. The sinking of the Titanic was______.

A. the most tragic sea disaster. B. the most historic sea disaster.

C. the most famous sea disaster D. the first great sea disaster.

2. What can the word “maiden” be best replaced with?

A. first B. historical C. important D. last

3. The life boats were______.

A. too short B. launched too soon C. half finished D. poorly equipped

4. The word “ those” refers to______.

A. passengers B. icebergs C. people D. lifeboats

5. The positive result of the disaster was that______.

A. a full inquiry was made. B. sea travel was made safer

C. lifeboats were made larger. D. a program of iceberg destruction was started.

Today computers come in all shapes and sizes.There were still big computers for companies or universities. There are other special computers for factories. These large computers tell the fatory machines what to do. But there are also small personal computers to use at home or in an office. There are even computers in telephones, television sets , and cars. These computers have to be small. They are so small that you cannot even see all their parts. Computers are very useful, but they also can cause problems. One kind of problems is with the computer's memory. It is not perfect so sometimes computers lose important information. Another problem is with the machinery. Computers are machines, and machines can break down. When the computers break down, they may erase information, like chalk on a blackboard. Or they may stop doing anything at all. And there is another different kind of problem with computers. Some doctors say they may be bad for your health. They say you should not work with computers all day.

Computing is now at the same stage as printing was when the first printing presses were used. Before printing presses were invented, only rich people like kings and dukes could afford to buy books. Often these people were unable to read and hadn’t enough time to learn. In any case, the books were so big that it was difficult for anyone to relax with a book as we do today. They wanted booked because they were expensive and there was something magical about them. Only a few people were able to write, and it took an extremely long time to write a book. Monks and other people who could write said ordinary people could not learn to read.

The position with computers is very similar today. A few years ago, computers were very large and expensive. Business managers and rich people ordered them but they didn’t know how to use them. In many countries, however, the situation has now completely changed. Lots of people not only own microcomputer but also know how to use them.

Questions:

1) What happened before printing presses were invented?

- Only kings and dukes had enough money to buy books.

2) Why were books wanted before printing presses were invented?

- Because books were expensive and magical.

3) What is common feature of a book and a computer?

- They were large and expensive at first

4) What situation has thoroughly changed nowadays?

- A person who buys a computer knows how to use it.
